For A New Momma

So my friend Florida is breastfeeding my Godchild, Jack. She is doing an amazing job with it too. But when I was down a few weeks ago, she had yet to find a way to keep herself covered enough for her father to be in the room while feeding. I've seen similar covers in stores but never really paid that close of attention to them. But once I figured out how big to make the cover, the rest was pretty easy. The center has boning in it so that the momma can easily see her baby while feeding. On each side there is a corner pocket made out of terrycloth to wipe milk, hold a pacifier or nipple pads. And the strap is adjustable with d-rings. I mean, nothing fancy but she said she really likes that it is plenty large to cover her and the baby and the pillows without slipping off.

Mommas out there....do you use similar covers? Is there a feature on yours that you really like? I have a plethora of momma girlfriends these days and am always looking for a new gift to make for them.
